BUILDING (PRIVATE STREETS AND ACCESS ROADS) REGULATIONS - REGULATION 28

Power of Building Authority to waive requirements of regulation 16

Where adequate tests have been carried out to determine the bearing capacity
of the ground forming the foundation of any carriageway and the results
thereof have been submitted to the Building Authority, the Building Authority

requirements of regulation 16 and, upon such waiver may, by order in writing,
require materials used in the surfacing of the carriageway to be based on the
results of such tests.
